‘Feanor’ won every ISORA trophy in the Irish Sea when sailed by Jim Poole.She competed in the Half Ton Cup in Poole in 1978 but did not perform well against the one-off designs such as ‘Waverider’ which has competed in the last two Half Ton Cups.

‘Feanor’ has not been seen sailing in Irish waters since Jim Poole died in an accident after an ISORA race in 198?

2015 October, mail from Cillian Macken with 2 pictures:  "She is and has been there since the mid 90s. I understand from talking to the member of Poolbeg yacht club where the boat was kept that the boat was used very little and left here however as it was stored within an industrial area the mast was run over and broken by a truck or fork lift"
